As a flight attendant, I travel to a lot of different cities… San Diego holds a special place in my heart. I explore a lot on my overnights, these are places and things I recommend doing/seeing.

Touristy Things
Liberty Station
Great place to grab a burger! Great atmosphere too.
Slater's 50/50
Great vibe and great beer!
Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station
This is my MUST GO to place in San Diego. They have the cutest gifts and plants galore. Traveling? They even have small plants that you can easily pack (carefully) in your carryon!
Pigment
Such a great coffee shop. Grab a coffee and go browse pigment next door!
Moniker General - San Diego
Such a cute store with many booths within! Great little shopping store.
Vintage and Makers Market | Sea Hive Station | San Diego
A smaller public market but jam packed with a lot of wonderful food and finds! Grab a coffee within and browse!
Liberty Public Market
A GREAT grocery store if you are in need of one! Trader Joe’s is just a few doors down, but just check this one out before TJs… you’ll be impressed!
Vons
A wonderful walk or run! If you are on the other side of the inlet, there is a great pedestrian bridge to walk to the other side easily!
Naval Training Center Park
Little Italy
The best ramen and the best staff! Order at the register and then go find a place to sit, they will bring the ramen to you. Oh, and you HAVE to get an order of the Baos buns! AMAZING
Underbelly
The best farmers market I have ever attended. Go find the hummus guys, so good. There are food trucks and coffee… items to purchase galore. Shop local!
Little Italy Mercato (Saturdays & Wednesdays)
Another great spot with a great vibe, amazing beer and the food is awesome too. Feel free to bring your dog and sit outside! 🍻
Ballast Point Brewing
Touristy Things
This is a great museum but definitely give yourself 3 hours, and that’s IF you are moving fast. They do a wonderful job and there are many people around if you have questions!
USS Midway Museum
Great photo op!
